Health and Wellbeing – First Aid

British Red Cross have provided the following resource – Life. Live it. First Aid education for children

Click on the following link – https://lifeliveit.redcross.org.uk

British Red Cross believe that first aid is a crucial life skill that everyone can and should learn. They aim for all 5 – 11 year olds in the UK to have the opportunity to learn the skills and gain the confidence to save lives.

This resource is split into four sections:

  • Stay Safe
  • Help Save Lives
  • Emergency Action

Each section provides a range of activities such as ‘How to’ videos, interactive games and quizzes. Take some time to look through the website and let us know in the comments what you have learned. We would recommend that an adult is present when you are using this website.
